THE MICHIGAN LEAGUE
There's a real advantage in
Wahr's book store in selecting
Christmas gifts. It's like a game
-you try to match up a person's
characteristics and peculiarities
with a book. For instance, "Men.
Against Death" by Paul Krul, who
wrote "Microbe Hunters," is a
grand book for mostly everyone
with emphasis on those who enjoy
discussing life. There's a new
novel by John Erskine, for those'
who like John Erskine and I do.
"Forgive Us Our Trespasses," by
a Lloyd C. Douglas, a minister at
our Great University some 20
years ago, is simply ideal for Aunt
Minnie. "Wild Pilgrimage," wood-
cuts by Lynd Ward (remember
"God's Men" and "Madman's
Drum"?) would be wildly appre-
ciated by the artistic soul on the
list, and anyone else with a glim-
erance of imagination.
Just about this time when
everybody is getting a little tired
of doing the same thing over and
over again and you wish that
there was some way different of
ending things up with a bang be-
fore vacation, along comes our
faithful League with and open
house on Thursday that really
should be -a knock-out. Every-
thing, excepting food, is absolute-
ly free including a play that Val-
entine B. Windt of Play Produc-
tion will present. It's called "The
Flattering Word," a satire by
George KellW in which we learn
what is the one real compliment
that never fails. The gameroom
on the first floor will be intro-
duced and if' you can't find some-
thing to amuse you in ping-pong,
bridge, billiards, chess, backgam-
mon and everything else imagin-
able-it's your faul. And in the
ballroom, Nilsa Saliva and her
brother Gustavo Saliva will dem-
onstrate how they tango in May-
aguezo, Porto Rico. The grill will
be: open for refreshments and
dancing too. Don't forget all this
is for men too. See you there
December 15.
1 know a place where the gos-
pels of beauty are really spread
and lived up to. The flifeetia
Beauty Shop on State has always
been very popular among us "col-
litch" girls. Just try to step into
the place on a Friday night if you
don't believe me. The nice thing
about it is that you get sincere
beauty instruction not just a pat-
ter. For instance a permanent is
never recommended unless the
old one is well grown out. Perma-
nents too close together is the
cause of most of the evils that
befall hair.
In the Christmas rush for gifts,
don't forget about yourself. Dur-
ing the holidays you will undoubt-
edly attend many social functions.
You will want to look your best. Re-
member to stock up on your cos-
metic supply from the Fifth Ave-
nue Shop in the Arcade. How
about the powder that was blend-
ed to match your skin, are you
running low on rouge or eye-
shadow that was made for your
own personal colorings? Better
take inventory.
Look your very best when you
sten off the train this vacation
and let the homefolks rediscover
you. Nothing peps up the ward-
robe more, and consequently your-
self, than a becoming hat and the
Robert's Hat Shop on E. Liberty
is showing some of the brightest
wooly little turbans imaginable.
And what they don't do to freshen
up winter clothes is a miracle. Do
you know that they make hats for
you to correspon.d with dresses?
And their little metallic turbans
are nice with your Sunday night
dress.
There's a nice friendly atmos-
phere at the Jane Egan shop on
S. U. There's a fire blazing and
tea served every afternoon at 4,
and little Miss-Egan is a charming
hostess. Her display of costume
jewelry make nice gifts. A three-
piece set of dull gold and pearl
can be sold separately for a dollar
a piece and a barbaric snaky
necklace and bracelet at the same
price are grand for day wear.
Furthermore Miss Egan can order
anything for you from her partner
in Chicago.
